The primary goal of teaching is to inspire confidence in the student and to equip them with the necessary skills to achieve their desired goals. I believe in assessing a student’s proficiency in the subject at hand and designing a learning curriculum to match their individual needs. I find that students have different learning styles and aptitudes: some require step-by-step instruction, while others prefer to try and solve a problem on their own. Regardless of what the student prefers, I am ready to provide that for them. In addition, I believe that familiarity with the subject and nature of the test inspires confidence and decreases anxiety. Therefore, I believe in recreating the testing environment at home so that the student will be comfortable when it comes to test day. Finally, I believe in displaying enthusiasm for the subject so that the student sees that learning is something to get excited about, and can be a rewarding experience in its own right.
